you know what i mean: no matter how many times you've seen them, no matter how late it is, no matter how cut-to-shreds they might be, you have to watch.  what are they?

Hmm this might be a little bit embarrassing. 

She's the Man and Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star are lame comedies with weak stories and cheesy endings.  But they both make me cry laughing every time I see them, and I've seen them both several times now.

well, in the embarrassing category, one of mine is Drop Dead Fred ;)

How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days.

oh and does Office Space count?

Anchorman : Legend of Ron Burgundy

Office Space is good!

Killer Klowns from Outerspace

my fav movie of all time

I have bad taste :D I love it....

Gotta be Blazing Saddles... all the way!!!  Sadly, stupid as it is, it is probably my all time favorite movie.  Mel Brooks was a twisted genuis!

The Host. I'm sorry, but this is a horrible movie. I don't care that it received 7.1/10 stars on IMDB. It's a horrible movie. But even so, it is an awesome movie. Probably the most awesomely bad movie I've ever seen.

 Blazing Saddles is not a bad movie, so I'm not sure if it qualifies per the OP.  You are correct - Mel Brooks is a genius.

I have two favorite bad movies:  "The Clash of the Titans" and "Roadhouse."

The first one because I like the cheesy effects and I'm drawn in by the combination of Lawrence Olivier, Maggie Smith, Burgess Meredith and Harry Hamlin.  The second one, well, I haven't quite figured out.  I just know if I happen to catch it on TBS I can't tear myself away.

My all-time favorite movie is Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

There are far more than I really care to admit, but a few of the really bad ones:

10 Things I Hate About You

8 Mile

Bring It On

Cool As Ice

Stomp The Yard

I don't really count Molly Ringwald movies as "bad" per ce, but I know some people do, and I will watch them every time. I will watch any cheerleading movie. Any dance movie. Any teen romance. And I'll love them, yes I will.

I dunno... I showed it to my daughter once... she said it was the worst movie she'd ever seen.  I had someone else tell me another time too.  I suspect "bad" is relative to a certain extent.

I agree with Roadhouse though... it's like a deer in headlights... I can't turn away!

Oh god, how could I have forgotten! That is the real #1 on my awesomely bad movies list. I <3 it.

STARSHIP TROOPERS!

 

Monty Python and the Holy Grail?  How is that a bad movie?
Princess bride
Hairspray
Not bad but not everyone loves them and very overwatched by me :)

Ah...well.  There have been plenty of supposedly good movies that I thought were crap - so yeah, it's pretty relative to certain extent.  (IE: I understand the cultural relevance of "The Graduate", but I didn't think it was all that "good" of a movie.)

As for the above post re:  "The Princess Bride" - IMO, one of the best movies ever (well, it's certainly my favorite ever....)

 That's what I was thinking.  So far, two classic comedy flicks mentioned - [shakes head...sighs]
